cloud bread cinnamon raisin nut pastry...low carb



Recommended Posts

Ok.. so first of all...I made these neato things called "cloud bread" that I found here:

sugar free Cinnamon Syrup (DaVinci, Torani, Starbucks...whatever)

Bake as directed in recipe above.

Mix some cream cheese with some splenda to taste...(sweetened cream cheese) and a little butter to smooth it out, use as a "frosting" for the "pastry".

enjoy!:lol0::001_tt2:

It's a very tender pastry Stacy..not sure it would hold up to heavy toppings. Honestly, I would add pizza type spices into the dough..and finely chop some pepperoni to stir into the batter. Then maybe just put mushrooms and cheese on top after the pastry is cooked?

I think it's a forgiving recipe as long as you remember that it's basically a meringue with cream cheese for structure.

I toasted it today and then split it open and made a PB & J with no sugar added Peanut Butter (Trader Joes) and some sugar free Grape jelly.

Yummmmmmm!:lol0:

I'm having a blast with these! I made savory ones yesterday and since each batch makes six "clouds" I made two of them into onion rolls (added 2 T broken up Durkee Fried Onions), two were italian seasoned, and two were pizza rolls with chopped pepperoni and pizza spices.

Next I'm going to try sweet again...and try something along the lines of a fruit filled danish, I think if I use No Sugar added apricot preserves it will work.

By the way...I split one of the "onion roll clouds" last night and had it with a 3 oz hamburger patty, a thin slice of velveeta and no sugar added bread and butter pickle slices, and some ketchup. You can't handle them roughly..but it held together enough that I felt I was having a cheeseburger!

Last night I split one of my cloud bread thingies that I had flavored with crushed Durkee onions, toasted it well, and then put 1/4 cup of bbq pulled chicken on it.

10 carbs total for a BBQ chicken sandwich! loving these things...so versatile

I showed this to John a couple of nights ago, and I think we're going to try them this weekend.

Do they stay fresh in a ziploc baggy? Like if I make a few, would they keep in a ziploc baggy if John wanted to make a sandwich out of them while I'm out of state next week?

Tiff,

Because they are primarily eggs and cream cheese, they get a little sticky in a ziploc. However, that's where I store mine, I just don't zip it! I think they will freeze great and he could pull one out at a time and toss it in the toaster to defrost it and get rid of any stickiness.

I'm truly loving these as a "sandwich" helper and a Breakfast pastry. I live alone and preparing a complete dinner just isn't in my game plan. However, I can fix a small healthy, high Protein, low carb sandwich and feel good. (I usually can only eat 2/3rds if I make it into a sandwich..but that's ok. The new momma dogs get the rest!).

Flavor them well, otherwise they can be bland. Adding in dry spices for the savory ones really made the difference and kept them from tasting "eggy".

Let me know what you try and how you like them!

Thank ya bunches. I really like the idea of the onion flavored ones. And, John wants some fruity ones.

I can eat bread, but it's kind of "ehh" if that makes sense. I just don't find it flavorful anymore.

Tiff,

did you try these?

I still love the ones that made into Cinnamon rolls with nuts the best. They really need the walnuts or pecans for texture and the craisins for a punch of flavor. I'm going to Trader Joe's early next week while I'm in Indianapolis and get some sugar free dried cranberries...those will be nice in this.

I should make more this week...sandwich options are getting low without them in the house.

I have not ventured into making these yet. It's supposed to storm here this weekend so maybe I'll give them a try tonight.

I've fallen love with the Thomas Bagel thins. I've several of the ingredients in my pantry for these. John was stubborn about trying them when I went out of town, and he probably wouldn't have eaten them unless I was here to encourage it. LOL

These are called "oopsie rolls"

They are a variation of Atkin's revolutionary rolls

The person who came up with them made a mistake while trying to make revo rolls that its why they got named OOPSIE rolls. Lol.

they're known by several names. The website that I found the recipe referred to them as "cloud bread".

Is there a point to correcting it?

Tiff, I wouldn't make them on a humid day. The dryer the better. I baked the last batch for 45 minutes and then loosened them from the pan and returned them to the turned off oven until the oven was cool.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
